Static Electricity Precautions
Static electricity could damage components on this mainboard.
Take the following precautions while unpacking this mainboard
and installing it in a system.
1. Don’t take this mainboard and components out of their original
static-proof package until you are ready to install them.
2. While installing, please wear a grounded wrist strap if possible.
If you don’t have a wrist strap, discharge static electricity by
touching the bare metal of the system chassis.
3. Carefully hold this mainboard by its edges. Do not touch those
components unless it is absolutely necessary. Put this
mainboard on the top of a static-protection package with
component side facing up while installing.
Pre-Installation Inspection
1. Inspect this mainboard whether there are any damages to
components and connectors on the board.
2. If you suspect this mainboard has been damaged, do not
connect power to the system. Contact your mainboard vendor
about those damages.

Notice:
1.Owing to Microsoft’s certifying schedule is various to every
supplier, we might have some drivers not certified yet by
Microsoft. Therefore, it might happen under Windows XP that a
dialogue box (shown as below) pop out warning you this
software has not passed Windows Logo testing to verify its
compatibility with Windows XP. Please rest assured that our RD
department has already tested and verified these drivers. Click
the “Continue Anyway” button and go ahead the installation.
2. USB 2.0 Driver Limitations:
2-1.The USB 2.0 driver only supports Windows XP and
Windows 2000.
2-2.If you connect a USB 2.0 hub to the root hub, plugging USB
devices into this hub, the system might not successfully execute
certain USB devices’ connection because it could not recognize
these devices.
Currently, we are working on such limitations’ solution. As soon
as the solution is done, the updated USB drive will be released
to our website: www.pcchips.com.tw for your downloading.
3. Note: While you are connecting power connectors, you must
first connect the CPU Vcore power connector PJ1, and then
the ATX1 connector.

Chapter 1
Introduction
This mainboard has a Socket-478 supporting Intel
Pentium 4/Hyper Threading Technology processors with
Front-Side Bus (FSB) speeds up to 800 MHz. Hyper Threading
Technology, designed to take advantage of the multitasking
features in Windows XP, gives you the power to do more things at
once.
This mainboard integrates the 868Pro HT1683/HT1563 chipsets
that support the built-in USB 2.0 providing higher bandwidth,
implementing Universal Serial Bus Specification Revision 2.0
and is compliant with UHCI 1.1 and EHCI 0.95.
This mainboard also supports AC 97 Audio Codec and provides
Ultra DMA 33/66/100/133 function. There are one 8x AGP, one
CNR (Communications and Networking Riser) and four 32-bit
PCI slots on the mainboard. There is a full set of I/O ports
including two PS/2 ports for mouse and keyboard, one serial port,
one parallel port and maximum six USB2.0 ports – four back-panel
ports and onboard USB connectors USB3 providing four extra
ports by connecting the Extended USB Module to the mainboard.
This mainboard is an ATX mainboard and has power connectors
for an ATX power supply.
Note: You must initiate the HT CPU function through
BIOS setup. It is strongly recommended you
refer to Page 34 for relative details.
Key Features
This mainboard has these key features:
Socket-478 Processor
♦ Supports Intel Pentium 4 series CPU with Hyper
Threading Technology
♦ Supports up to 800 MHz Front-Side Bus
Hyper-Threading technology enables the operating
system into thinking it’s hooked up to two processors,
allowing two threads to be run in parallel, both on
separate ‘logical’ processors within the same physical
processor.
Chipset
The 868Pro HT1683/HT1563 chipsets provide an innovative and
scalable architecture with proven reliability and performance.

Audio Ports
Use the three audio ports to connect audio
devices. The first jack is for stereo Line-In
signal. The second jack is for stereo LineOut signal. The third jack is for Microphone.
Installing the Processor
This mainboard has a Socket 478 processor socket. When choosing
a processor, consider the performance requirements of the system.
Performance is based on the processor design, the clock speed and
system bus frequency of the processor, and the quantity of internal
cache memory and external cache memory.
CPU Installation Procedure
Follow these instructions to install the CPU:
SOCKET-478
Pin 1
CPUFAN1

1. Unhook the locking lever of the CPU socket. Pull
the locking lever away from the socket and raising
it to the upright position.

2. Match the pin1 corner marked as the beveled edge
on the CPU with the pin1 corner on the socket.
Insert the CPU into the socket. Do not use force.
3. Push the locking lever down and hook it under the
latch on the edge of socket.
4. Apply thermal grease to the top of the CPU.
5. Install the cooling fan/heatsink unit onto the CPU,
and secure them all onto the socket base.
6. Plug the CPU fan power cable into the CPU fan
connector (CPUFAN1) on the mainboard.
Installing Memory Modules
This mainboard accommodates two 184-pin 2.5V unbuffered
Double Data Rate SDRAM (DDR SDRAM) Dual Inline
Memory Module (DIMM) sockets, and supports up to 2.0 GB
of 400 MHz DDR SDRAM.
DDR SDRAM is a type of SDRAM that supports data transfers on
both edges of each clock cycle (the rising and falling edges),
effectively doubling the memory chip’s data throughput. DDR
DIMMs can synchronously work with 133 MHz, 166 MHz or
200 MHz memory bus.
DDR SDRAM provides 1.6 GB/s, 2.1 GB/s or 3.2GB/s data
transfer rate when the bus is 133 MHz, 166 MHz or 200 MHz,
respectively.
DDR SDRAM uses additional power and ground lines and requires
184-pin 2.5V unbuffered DIMM module.
DDR1
DDR2

Memory Module Installation Procedure
These modules can be installed with up to 2 GB system memory.
Refer to the following to install the memory module.
1. Push down the latches on both sides of the DIMM
socket.
2. Align the memory module with the socket. There is
a notch on the DIMM socket that you can install the
DIMM module in the correct direction. Match the
cutout on the DIMM module with the notch on the
DIMM socket.
3. Install the DIMM module into the socket and press
it firmly down until it is seated correctly. The
socket latches are levered upwards and latch on to
the edges of the DIMM.
4. Install any remaining DIMM modules.

BIOS Setup Utility
Introduction
The BIOS Setup Utility records settings and information of your
computer, such as date and time, the type of hardware installed,
and various configuration settings. Your computer applies the
information to initialize all the components when booting up and
basic functions of coordination between system components.
If the Setup Utility configuration is incorrect, it may cause the
system to malfunction. It can even stop your computer booting
properly. If it happens, you can use the clear CMOS jumper to
clear the CMOS memory which has stored the configuration
information; or you can hold down the Page Up key while
rebooting your computer. Holding down the Page Up key also
clears the setup information.
You can run the setup utility and manually change the
configuration. You might need to do this to configure some
hardware installed in or connected to the mainboard, such as the
CPU, system memory, disk drives, etc.
36
Running the Setup Utility
Every time you start your computer, a message appears on the
screen before the operating system loading that prompts you to
“Hit <DEL>if you want to run SETUP”. Whenever you see this
message, press the Delete key, and the Main menu page of the
Setup Utility appears on your monitor.
